Best of Consulting Award 2023

Award ceremony for the winning companies in WirtschaftsWoche Best of Consulting 2023

At the award ceremony on Thursday, 30 November 2023, at Kö59 in Düsseldorf, our founder and Managing Director Erno Marius Obogeanu-Hempel and our Senior Consultant Gerald Draht were presented with the two awards: 2nd place in the “Organization” category and an award in the “Strategy” category.

The methodology: Customer benefit as the main criterion for awarding companies with Best of Consulting WirtschaftsWoche

BEST OF CONSULTING MITTELSTAND reviews the project success of consulting firms. A six-member jury and an advisory board evaluate the customer benefits of the projects based on the following criteria:

  • Content: Creativity, analytical contribution, methodical contribution, market and industry knowledge.
  • Communication: reputation, networking, moderation, teamwork, project management.
  • Reality effect: effect on operating result, feasibility, own contribution to implementation, scope.
  • Customer satisfaction

The comprehensive consultant check identifies Germany’s best management consultancy projects and thus creates clarity in a non-transparent market.

The award is therefore a valuable guide and helps customers in their search for the best possible consultant for their next project.
